Giants’ Witherspoon Carted Off During OTAs; Another Torn ACL Feared

NEW YORK (WFAN) — Giants backup cornerback Brian Witherspoon went down with an apparent leg injury Wednesday and had to be carted off the field during the team’s first day of OTAs.

It could be another tough blow for Witherspoon, who missed the entire 2011 season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee last August. The cornerback chronicled his recovery on Twitter, and wrote he was “excited” to get OTAs underway last week.
